Health related quality of life and manual ability 5 years after neonatal ischemic stroke.

CONCLUSION: Five years after NAIS, HRQOL is comparable to that of typically developing peers, but reduced in children with CP. Poorer manual ability is associated with lower HRQOL. Interventions improving hand function might influence HRQOL and should be considered early on. PMID: 31473077 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
